Detailed Description

Describes a sphere. A sphere is defined by its radius, and is positioned in space by a coordinate system (a gp_Ax3 object), the origin of which is the center of the sphere. This coordinate system is the "local coordinate system" of the sphere. The following apply:

  • Rotation around its "main Axis", in the trigonometric sense given by the "X Direction" and the "Y Direction", defines the u parametric direction.
  • Its "X Axis" gives the origin for the u parameter.
  • The "reference meridian" of the sphere is a half-circle, of radius equal to the radius of the sphere. It is located in the plane defined by the origin, "X Direction" and "main Direction", centered on the origin, and positioned on the positive side of the "X Axis".
  • Rotation around the "Y Axis" gives the v parameter on the reference meridian.
  • The "X Axis" gives the origin of the v parameter on the reference meridian.
  • The v parametric direction is oriented by the "main Direction", i.e. when v increases, the Z coordinate increases. (This implies that the "Y Direction" orients the reference meridian only when the local coordinate system is indirect.)
  • The u isoparametric curve is a half-circle obtained by rotating the reference meridian of the sphere through an angle u around the "main Axis", in the trigonometric sense defined by the "X Direction" and the "Y Direction". The parametric equation of the sphere is: P(u,v) = O + R*cos(v)*(cos(u)*XDir + sin(u)*YDir)+R*sin(v)*ZDir where:
  • O, XDir, YDir and ZDir are respectively the origin, the "X Direction", the "Y Direction" and the "Z Direction" of its local coordinate system, and
  • R is the radius of the sphere. The parametric range of the two parameters is:
  • [ 0, 2.*Pi ] for u, and
  • [ - Pi/2., + Pi/2. ] for v.
